BatteryProtect 100A (BATTERYPROTECT-1224V-100A)

The Victron Energy BatteryProtect is the ultimate insurance policy for your battery bank. Designed to prevent the irreversible damage caused by deep discharging, this intelligent device automatically disconnects non-essential loads before your battery reaches a critical voltage level. Whether you are managing a lead-acid system or a high-end Lithium (LiFePO4) setup, the BatteryProtect ensures that enough energy remains for essential functions, such as starting your engine or maintaining critical communications. Key Features and Benefits Intelligent Load Management: Automatically disconnects loads when battery voltage drops below a pre-set threshold, extending the overall lifespan of your battery bank. Simple Programming: Features a bright 7-segment display that allows you to choose between 10 different engage/disengage thresholds with ease. Lithium Ready: Includes a specific setting for Li-ion batteries, allowing the device to be controlled directly by a VE. Bus BMS or other battery management systems. Ultra-Low Power Consumption: Engineered for efficiency, the device consumes minimal current, which is vital after a low-voltage shutdown to prevent further draining of the battery. Ignition Proof Design: Utilizes MOSFET switches instead of traditional mechanical relays. This eliminates sparking and makes the unit safe for use in environments where explosive gases may be present. Over-Voltage Protection: Beyond low-voltage protection, the unit safeguards your electronics by disconnecting loads if the DC voltage exceeds 16V (for 12V systems) or 32V (for 24V systems). Technical Specifications Nominal Voltage: Auto-ranging 12V or 24V (48V model available for high-voltage systems). Current Ratings: Available in 65A, 100A, and 220A continuous current variants to match your system requirements. Peak Current: High surge capacity to handle initial load spikes (up to 600A on the 220A model). Environmental Protection: Electronics are IP67 rated (encapsulated), providing excellent resistance to dust and moisture. Alarm Output: Includes a delayed alarm output that can trigger a buzzer, LED, or relay before the actual load disconnect occurs. Versatile Applications The Victron BatteryProtect is a staple in professional-grade power systems across multiple industries. In Marine applications, it prevents house loads from draining the starter battery. For RV and Caravan users, it manages power-hungry appliances like refrigerators and lights. In Off-grid Solar installations, it acts as a reliable low-voltage disconnect (LVD) for DC circuits. Please note that the BatteryProtect is uni-directional and is intended for use between the battery and the loads, or between a charger and the battery, but never both simultaneously. With a robust 5-year warranty and Victron Energy's reputation for reliability, the BatteryProtect is an essential component for anyone looking to maximize their battery investment and ensure system uptime in any environment.
